(FORTUNE Magazine) – Midsummer fevers infect Manhattan as nowhere else. . . Forget the drunks and druggies, rapists, muggers and murderers who are part of the city's pestilence year-round. Think instead of the steamy day that. . . Rosita Libre de Marulanda bared her breasts for commuters on the A-line. Or the cat that jumped from 46 floors up and lived. . . Rosita is the 49-year-old breast activist who is constantly doffing her shirt in the subway at rush hour. She does it to promote a 1992 New York court ruling that says it is sex discrimination for men to be allowed to take their shirts off in public, but not women. . . Last month, a cat set a record for surviving a 46-story fall into a flower tub. -- From an article by Peter Pringle in the Vancouver Sun.
